Address:

Built in the 12th Century, Aberdour castle is an imposing and sprawling structure, extended and added on to many times in the last 1000 years. The castle and gardens make a lovely place to take a walk or a tour, and there is a particularly beautiful painted ceiling from the 18th century in the East wing of the house. The site doubles as the Monastery in France to which Jamie flees in Outlander, and you can see why. The walls and gardens are easily imaginable as the site of his 17th century escape.
